I played this for the first time in 2024, 14 years after release, mostly because I just wanted to have a more full experience diving into RDR2. I found myself completely captivated by this story, and the gameplay, while dated, offered enough variety to keep me distracted from what was initially supposed to be a main story speedrun. I’m SO glad I played this first. Everything in RDR2 is enriched by this experience.
